Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I know I have carpal tunnel in one hand and had surgery on the other. My orthopedist has me on Vimovo 500mg. I am having very bad wrist pain in both wrists. Pain turning the steering wheel, can t lift much or turn my wrists to either side. Sometimes hurts just doing nothing. I tried to see if it was a side effect to the Vimovo.
It is not related to vimovo. As a first line management you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief. If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
